The SuDDly of Coal

The hard-coal supply is much better but the
prices remain high on account of there being no
decline in the Eastern markets. One large firm
OF dealers has ninety cars of anthracite In its
yards. but good deal OF it is for shipment 20
points beyond The danger of coal famine
has passed for the present. From the Ohio
river towns and cities there continues
great demand Indianapolis for
Brazil coal, the river remains
low and there is prospect of barges coming
down from Pittsburg at an early day. The sup
ply in Madison is exhausted. and Cincinnati is
sending here for coal Chicago, the past week,
has had trouble in getting coal from Brazil
account of want of cars and Chicaeos switching
facilities, which will not permit the rapid move
ment OF cars to be unloaded. This has helped
indianapolis to supply the towns of southern
Indiana.

The Republican caucus of councimen and
aldermen to select the city boards may not oc-
cur until after the first meeting, as the joint
convention fer that purpose will not occur un til

manifested however. to this plan. They say
the minority has right to be represented on
the boards and committees.

A Patent Decision That VIII Cost Some OF
Them Much Cash


ROCHESTER, N Y, May ga dispatch
from Washington has been received here stat
ing that the Consolidated Bunging Apparatus
company, of Rochester, of which Mr.. James
Sargent is president, had received an i'm
portant decision in their favor from the sn-
preme court. This company had sued
brewer named Maus, of indianapolis. for in
fringing the Meiler 4 Hoffman patent owned
by it, by manufacturing beer under controll-
able pressure of carbonic acid gas, which was
covered broadly by the third claim of the
patent.
In the court below Judge Drummond ha
decided against the patent and dismissed the
bill, but the supreme court reverses his deci-
sion, holds the validity of the patent DEGREES
an accounting of profits and damages and
orders perpetual injunction The decision
is of the utmost Importance to the brewing
trade, as nearly every brewer in the country
is infringing, and under this decision will be
liable to the payment of heavy damages,
amounting in many cases to thousands OF
dollars
The Consolidated Bunging Apparatus com
pany has been in litigation several years with
the Eureka Spund Apparatus company, of
this city; William Woerle of Chicago:
Schafer & Guth, of New York, and Charles
Skunk, of Milwaukee, and others, in reference
to this invention. All these suits are virtually
settled by this decision of the supreme court
as the claim that has been declared valid is
broad enough to cover all parties who hold
their beer during the process of fermentng
under comfortable pressure whether i'll single
